Love the pub.
Usually only go once a week though.
Just got back from a run to shake off the 8 pints from yesterday.
some of the reason for the demise of pubs is not so much the appearance of what is referred to as an under class so much as government taxing alcohol, and a lot of other things the ordinary person involves, to a greater extent than other things, so the cost of going to the pub has increased greatly in proportion to rising wages.
As an example, in 1988 in my local a pint of Newcastle Exhibition was 97 pence. 3 Years later it was £1.32, an increase of nearly 30%. toady it will cost you £3.50. But in line with inflation it should cost about £2.30.
If a shot of whisky had increased by the same percentage from then until now it would cost about £7 a shot.
